Summary

[edit]
Description

Interior of Chesterfield parish church, St Mary and All Saints, Chesterfield, Derbyshire. This is a Grade I listed building, begun in the 14th century. It has had a number of rebuilds and restorations. In 1874, architect Samuel Rollinson restored the south transept, fitting a new window, and rebuilding a forgotten medieval doorway, Charles Mawer was employed to replace and carve the missing dog-toothed stones from the door's archway.

This is an unedited scan of a postcard, postmarked 6 May 1905. It was hand-coloured in Bavaria for Raphael Tuck & Sons, and numbered 4911. The photograph was taken before the rood screen was added. It shows a view from the nave through the chancel arch to the chancel, showing the Temple Lushington Moore reredos (1898). You can also see the Jacobean pulpit and the 1843 east window by William Wailes. (The restoration by Temple Moore including the removal of the box pews in the aisles took place between 1896 and 1910. The replica of the original Foljambe chantry chapel screen was installed in the chancel in 1915, but the chancel arch rood screen was installed during or after 1916.)
